The conditions seem to grow worse instead of better. Its getting so an officer who tries to rattl a modern bootlegging joint is taking big chances. At South Bend when such a thing was attempted the police were hissed and hooted at by a thousand bystanders. France will deport Texas Guinan and her troupe of dancers. Whoever thought in their wildest moments that this country could ever produce women who would put Paris to shame and over here we have so many worse that Texas and her crew will come back more popular than ever? A publicity "nut” named William Hill tried to go over Niagara Falls in a barrel Saturday, struck the whirlpool and after dizzying around three hours, yelled for help. His son managed to get a rope around . the tank and pull the old man in. , He ought to have taker, him home and used a good stout strap on him. The Twin Dollar Days held here last week were very successful, according to reports from the raer .' chants who participated and there I is much seutimeht that these events be put on more frequently. Special trade days are always the best - drawing cards any community can - have. The observation of Memorial Day here was complete and hundreds paid sincere reverence to departed loved ones. The American Legion, aided by veterans of otner wars and by citizens in general carried out there program as planned, even the inclement weather tailing to interfere seriously. Louie Schneider, Indianapolis young man, won the honors at the Speedway races Saturday and carried home the prizes of first money, estimated at 3b,000. Billy Arnold who won the 500-mile classic last year, led the race again up to almost 400 when when his car went over the wMI and burned up. The crowd was one of the largest on record for any sport in America.

| President Hoover says if we have the same stuff in us that made Gen eral Washington and his men win over every obstacle at Valley Forge • in the Revolutionary war, we will . come through the present depress- • km in due time. We hope ti isn’t as serious as that for certainly there is no need of such suffering from cold and starvation as those , heroes went through. In this land I‘of over abundance there should be 1 r way that people could honestly i have every requirement for com--1 fort. I Josephus Daniels is considered a very smart man and of course he is, for he makes t a lot of money writing articles for other newspapers that he doesn’t print in his own. Yesterday he heads an article with the question, "When will prosperity turn that corner?" and after devoting a column and a half to a discussion of it closes with the sentence, “The man who can answer it is both a statesman and a prophet.” Smart? We’ll say he is. He gets paid good money for that. Among the distinguished visitors here Sunday for the Silver Jubilee celebration of the local Knights of Columbus lodge, was Martin H. Carmody, of Grand Rapids, Michigan, supreme knight of the order. He is one of the great men in fraternal circles and the local lodge was fortunate to have so distinguished a gentleman on the program. It was a great occasion for the lixal lodge and his words have inspired the members here to greater activities for the many good things for which their organization stands. Congratulations are extended to the men who have made the Decatur Council one of the best in the middle west. Tragic beyond description was the accident at Berne early Saturday .morning which brought almost instant death to Mr. and Mrs. Charles O. Miller and three of their children and left as orphans six ether children. No doubt for | weeks they planned the trip to | Cleveland over Decoration Day and were just started when their lives were snuffed out. Many of us recall similarly planned trips, everybody happy in anticipation and givI ing little heed to the dangers we know lurk at railroad crossings, feeling the dangers for others but giving little thought to our own i safety as w T e go skimming over the roads. There can be no other explanation of this terrible accident for Mr. Miller was familiar with the crossing at Berne and knew of the midnight trains no doubt, but even the warning cry of the night watch-1 man failed to bring the seriousness of his position. The car reached the tracks just at the moment when the fast north bound train on the Pennsylvania did and the five | sou’s were hurled into eternity, accident saddened the hearts vs many and from it we should all again renew the vow to drive carefully, to stop and look and listen at railroad crossings. Only by the exercise of greater care can the great loss of life be lessend. a .... Modern Etiquette By | ROBERTA LEE * (jjpy « Q. What are the proper hours for afternoon calling? , A.
